Taxing Thursday 5 min challenge to do list

Daria_Aleksandrovna · 06-14-2012, 03:30 AM

Noon already here. Currently attempting to nurse baby down to nap, while DS1 is left alone to play with sink full of water. That's going to end well...

to do this afternoon:
- dress the children
- go to library
- hoover up this crummy lounge floor
~~- stuff the valance~~
~~- look up freezer and see what's there for dinner~~

I'm in for as much as I can today - so much on the list that I have to accomplish and this thread always motivated me to keep up!

So far,

unloaded dishwasher.
fed kids.
emptied all the garbages and put them out at the curb.
collected all the dirty laundry.
now loading the dishes.

dishes loaded, kitchen swept, big dishes washed, wiped off counters (and about to scrub them)

Annainprogress · 06-14-2012, 04:28 AM

I meant to do stuff this morning. And just read stuff online instead

. Must clean etc this afternoon!

StoryOfGrace · 06-14-2012, 04:34 AM

Made the bed this morning...and that's about as far as I've gotten.

Today I need to:
~Make sure DS gets a good tooth brushing
~Take DS to his first ever dentist appt

~Vacuum
~Laundry
~Empty dishwasher
~Figure out what to put in the crock-pot for dinner
~Go to work this PM (ugh!)

bec28 · 06-14-2012, 05:11 AM

Picked up the floor
Vacuumed
Did some dishes
Put away the diapers

Going outside now to hopefully rid ds of some of his energy

Annainprogress · 06-14-2012, 05:20 AM

Ok, DD "folded and put away" some laundry (will check on it soon

) while I swept up the bicarb from my mattress, and sprayed dilute vinegar and dabbed on some of the affected area (aim to do more later). I deposited the bicarb into the upstairs toilet and DD helped me add vinegar to that

. About to sort a load for drying now. Apparently she's now putting books away but I suspect when I go look she'll be watching tv lol
